Opening Reception for “mould the wing to match the photograph”
Asia Art Archive in America is pleased to announce our upcoming exhibition “mould the wing to match the photograph.” Drawing on the archive of Mrinalini Mukherjee, one of the most prominent sculptors in India known for her experimentation with form and materiality, this exhibition will stage an encounter between a selection of primary materials and newly commissioned artworks by artist Sreshta Rit Premnath. With a focus on Mukherjee’s artwork, Yogini, and a related set of instructions and 35 mm slides, the exhibition will explore how the archive actively reconfigures the understanding and experience of her work, particularly through the eyes and practice of contemporary artists today. The first iteration of this exhibition was presented in New Delhi by Asia Art Archive in India in 2022, where the team had digitized Mukerjee’s archive between 2020 - 2022. The project was then hosted at Asia Art Archive in Hong Kong between September 2023 through February 2024, before arriving in our Brooklyn space for a January 2025 opening in the U.S.
